LIBERIA, Costa Rica, July 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Guanacaste Airport (Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport), a member of the VINCI Airports network, has partnered with AirportLabs to upgrade to an integrated suite of digital tools. The deployment covered four core solutions — SkyCore AODB, Allegra RMS, VisionAir FIDS, and Airport Community App.

A Gateway Built for Growth

In a move designed to strengthen operational efficiency, enhance collaboration among airport stakeholders, and support future growth, Guanacaste Airport (Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport), a member of the VINCI Airports network, has completed the deployment of a comprehensive suite of digital solutions developed by AirportsLab. 

The implementation includes four core platforms: SkyCore AODB, Allegra RMS, VisionAir FIDS, and the Airport Community App, creating a connected digital ecosystem that streamlines airport operations, improves decision-making, and enhances passenger experience.

Serving 2 million passengers a year and connecting the region to destinations across North America andEuropethe airport has long been central to Guanacaste's identity as a world-class tourism destination.

The Challenge: Coordination at Scale

As passenger volumes grew and airline partnerships expanded, Guanacaste Airport recognized the need to optimize day-to-day airport operations. Teams were relying on separate systems and manual processes from managing flight schedules, resource allocation, and demand forecasting largely by hand, with limited shared visibility across the operation.

"Driven by our commitment to operational excellence and sustained growth, Guanacaste Airport sought a solution to transform operations. Our partnership with AirportLabs delivered an integrated platform that has streamlined workflows,reduce manual work effort, and improve coordination across teams, while providing real-time insights that support faster, more informed decision-making. Together, the partnership is helping build a more connected, efficient, and future-ready airport", stated Lizeth Valverde, Guanacaste Airport COO.

The Partnership

AirportLabs presented a structured phased deployment in which Guanacaste Airport modernized its operational environment without disrupting its daily activities. Working with AirportLabs, Guanacaste Airport brought SkyCore AODB and Allegra RMS live in February 2025, following a period of testing and staff training. The system became fully operative during the final quarter of 2025, enhancing operational efficiency and resource planning across the airport.

The transformation continued with the implementation of VisionAir FIDS in March 2025, giving passengers accurate synchronized flight information across every display in the terminal. By December 2025, Airport Community App was introduced to complete the airport's digital ecosystem, connecting the operational teams on the ground and enabling faster communication stronger collaboration, and more agile decision-making. Together, these solutions have helped position Guanacaste Airport for continued growth and operational excellence.

Each product was selected to solve a specific operational challenge, and together, they form the backbone of a more connected, more responsive airport.

• SkyCore AODB: Automates flight schedule management and eliminates data fragmentation, so all teams are working from a single, accurate source of truth.
• Allegra RMS: Moves resource planning from static spreadsheets to a dynamic, machine-learning-driven model, improving capacity utilization and unlocking new revenue opportunities.
• VisionAir FIDS: A hardware-agnostic display platform delivering real-time flight and wayfinding information to passengers across the terminal.
• Airport Community App: A mobile hub for operational teams, centralizing communication and enabling faster resolution of ground-level issues around the clock.

"What we built together here is not just a technology deployment. It is a foundation that gives every team at Guanacaste Airport — from resource planners to ground staff — the visibility and tools they need to make better decisions, faster. We are proud to be part of this next chapter.," says Rares Tudor Ignatescu, Product Manager at AirportLabs
